I found our little Dory covered in blood this morning with the other ducks fine. I’ve cleaned her up and the blood seems to have been from her bill only. Is this DIY or emergency vet territory?
Our flock is only named after characters from the Disney universe. So classic disney to Star Wars and Marvel. This little surprise baby is half silver laced polish (Dr.Falicitor) and half white silkie (Marie). She is melanistic with 5 toes and feathered feet. She has blue ears and black eyes...
We have a white Silkie that has begun to crow. We name our whole flock after characters from the Disney Universe (including what they own like Marvel, Muppets, Star Wars,etc...), and I love to name silkies after baddies because they are really just love bugs. So, what suggestions for our white...
I am in Kansas City and willing to pay for proper shipping if necessary. I really want dark eggs and locally I have only found mixed flocks. Online sites don’t show any egg photos. Hopefully you know someone!
Hello. My Cayuga drakes both turned out to be crosses and I want to breed for dark eggs. He would have a long happy life with us in KCMO. They eat non-gmo, organic feed and forage my garden lol. Happy to pay shipping if needed.
This funny boy had a khaki Campbell father and a Cayuga mother. He has 3 three white circles on his chest like an amulet. Just hit adulthood and is ready for his own little family. He protects the ladies and is good to them. Hopefully you will be his new family.
This handsome boy just got his drake feathers and is ready for a flock of his own. His momma was a Khaki Campbell and his daddy was a traveling salesman (wild mallard). This mixture made some detilful feather patterns is soft earth tones. He tolerates our snuggles and is very healthy, only ever...
I bought an Isabella Brahma from a quality breeder I have known for a while now. She was a 3 month Pullet. About a week after we got her she could barely lift her head. I called we discussed what we feed and other variances. We settled that she wasn’t taking the free choice grit and that she may...
Or is a funny shaped double yolk? I ask because it looks so different, but I am no expert. I did find in the corner of the run instead of a nesting box and it feels much smoother than our other eggs? I suppose I’ll find out for sure during breakfast! Cast your vote and tell me what you think.
Last month we got 4 ducklings just a couple day old. A blue Swedish, a mallard, and 2 Cayuga. They are all sexed female. At that time the blue Swedish was the largest. Even twice the size of the mallard. But now the Cayugas are twice her size and even the little mallard is bigger than her. I...
DH and I just wanted a couple of hens as pets who lay breakfast. I underestimated how quickly and deeply I’d get attached. I have this thing where when I love something I get a bit obsessed. So I read all about breeds, eggs, food, healthcare, coops, and more. That’s how I found BYC. I started...
We just shipped pullets for the first time. We sold 4 started Ayam Cemani pullets to @Tyrovive. Shipped overnight from Kansas City, MO to Yulee, FL. I gave them all a spa day yesterday and added electrolytes to their water. In the box are fresh apples and zucchini. Below are some photos. I’m...
I had 22 chicks and 3 ducklings in cages in our restroom (warmest room in the house) with the door closed. While we were gone the dogs found a way in and found 25 squeaky toys. I only had them a short time but I am heartbroken. I get attached so quickly. The duckling has imprinted on me already...
